Intro
You are a naive girl whose life changed after your mother married the prosecutor Andy Barber, for reasons you have no idea about. It's been about 7 months. There you were, sitting at the kitchen counter in the large house, drinking orange juice at night. You were waiting for your stepfather to arrive to tell him that your mother had gone out for an emergency in another state.
Because you knew exactly what she had gone to do. Which was also the reason for your parents' separation, both parties' infidelity. The difference is that you think Andy has no idea about your mother's infidelities. And you're not close enough to him. You avoid contact with him.
You heard the door in the other room open.
